SNOWFLAKE REINDEER

 


Hello bloggers! It's Saturday so it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge . As always, it's an "ANYTHING GOES" challenge as long as it's Christmas related, with the optional theme this week of "SOMETHING BEGINNING WITH R".

I have used one of my favourite dies to make my card this week. I love this reindeer because it's so simple and pretty, and you can used the cut out snowflakes to embellish! 

Looking forward to seeing your makes.

GLITTERY PINK CHRISTMAS TREE

 


Hello bloggers! It's Saturday so it's time for a new challenge at Crafty Hazelnut's Christmas Challenge . As always, it's an "ANYTHING GOES" challenge as long as it's Christmas related, with the optional theme this week of "USE SOME GLITTER".

Well, I made a major booboo this week. I always struggle taking good photos of my cards so as my daughter had been bragging about how brilliant her new phone is, I thought I'd enlist her help, completely forgetting this card is for her. Oh well, she'd have forgotten by Christmas!

I diecut a piece of pink snowflake backing paper and layered it up on pink card, adding a sentiment Christmas tree cut from glittered card, I've embellised the card with glittered snowflakes, perfect for my sparkly (not so little) girl...she's 19 and still loves pink!

Looking forward to seeing your makes.

HAPPY 101ST BIRTHDAY

 


Good morning! It's a new month which means it's new challenge time at Crafty Hazelnut's Patterned Paper Challenge. The theme, as always, is "ANYTHING GOES". We simply require you to use some patterned paper or card. Time to use that stash!

I had the great privilage of making a card for a gentleman who was 100 last year, and he's still with us! So I made him a card to celebrate his 101st birthday. I had to make the numbers and wording quite large as his eyesight is not so good. I cut numbers from a snippet of the backing paper I used and stamped "Happy Birthday" with the biggest stamp I have.

Looking forward to seeing your makes.

Hugs
